Flipping
throughthe variousfashion magazines and
wandering among web sites and fashion blogs, we can see how, more and more
often, giants of low cost fashion seekthe collaboration oftalentedartists
and established brands: examples
are theminicollection thatinternational brandslike Lanvinand Marni(just to name
afew) havecreated forthe brandof low cost fashion
H&M(I’ve talked about ithere).

Now is the turn
of Mary Katrantzou, talented greek designer know and appreciated in the world, who
has come to her third collaboration with the british multinational of low cost
clothing Topshop, to which she has created a capsule collection for S/S 2012,
presented during the London fashion week and launched on the brand’s web site,
that is going to steal!

The collection is
composed by ten pieces with simple shapes, structured mini dresses, tops,
shirts, leggings, scarves, long dresses with flowers colored with blue, mimosa
yellow, coral red, orange and patternstypicalofporcelains that characterize the
styleof this designer, elected as new starof the fashion industry.

The
designer said to be honored for this new collaboration: Topshop «It's very exciting to work with
Topshop for our third range together» she said «They've been so supportive of
my work from the very beginning and this range will be the most ambitious one
we've done and the most fun. My idea behind the collaboration was to design for
the Topshop girl a range that is as close to the aesthetic of my mainline as
possible, with great control over the quality of design and production. I can't
wait to see the Topshop girls in the bowl dresses and for the most daring to
see them try the print on print layering!»
